Tie Turks have torn up tihe MudanIia

the lBrit(ish, and other neutral zones.
An allied extraordinary council de
c(ided tonight to reftise categorically
the national demand for the allied mil

The landing of allied or American
sailors from the warships will not be
permitted unless by se)cial .permission
of the Angora government. This pro
nounceiment is made In one of two addi
tional notes which Illaiid Hey handed
to the.allied commissioners'tonight.
The first note deals with tie visit
to Kemalist ports of eight allied and
American warships and declares the
port authorities have been instructed
not to permit a landing. In accordance
with maritime laws the Turks request
that these vessels salute the Turkish
flag.
The other note sets IIp a claim for
the immediate handing over to the An
gora government of the Turkish rail
ways in Turope and Asia which are un
der temporary allied control.
Since noon Saturday the nationalist
administration is declared to have
been established and in celebration of
this ra'ses of excited Tiriks have been

Today, however, the government au

was nothing loft for the Sultan's min
